Don't know if i'm in the right place, but...
I grew up with a marantz pm700 (8Ohm-95watts & 4Ohm-155watts/ channel) and a pair of Wharfedale 'dovedale 3' speakers.
Several years ago my father passed the entire stereo-set over to me.
Like any (amateur) audiophile I never quite got over the sound of those Wharfedales (it seemed so big when I was only 'so' little!).
For a while now I've been searching the Net for a second pair of these speakers, believing that two pairs can be more than four speakers!
Ebay was a disappointment!
I've also contacted the Wharfedale-admin. but they we're unable to help me due to the age of this model.
They are typical mid/late-seventies speakers (with frequencyfilters, knowing that earlier one's worked without filters!) ! and total enclosure, woven frontpanel, etc. I myself have maintenanced my pair of dovedales wonderfully and handled them with care, they still give an unblemished sound without any flaws.
I would be ever so grateful if,
-you can direct me towards an owner of another pair of 'Dovedale 3's' , interested in selling a fully functional pair as unblemished as possible without any technical flaws!
-you can share with me you're first encounter with (audiophile) sound or your best experiences in the audiophile world
thx for reading/replying, do remember I am a humble amateur!
